"So we heard noise, we saw lights because our bedroom's in the front. I stumbled out of bed and saw big flames. Couldn't tell, I thought they were next door, but they were big, big, big! So big, I told my husband, get up, get up, get up!" said Beth Woodhall, a neighbor.

Woodhall said firefighters evacuated some people from the area.

"The next-door neighbor, I spoke to her across the street. She said they knocked on her door to get her out. But it was big, big, big! It was like tell my husband get up, get up, it wasn't like we were going to just casually see what happened," she added. "I think we got out of bed at 5:30, thinking the world was one fire. By the time I got dressed and crossed the street the fire was out. We're talking five or ten minutes at the most. Like nothing, nothing, nothing."
